RE:"Intel Corp. will accelerate the debut of its double-data-rate SDRAM-enabled chipset for the Pentium 4 microprocessor, pulling in the launch date from the first quarter of 2002 to October of this year, said sources with knowledge of the company's plans. The revised introduction date of the so-called Brookdale chipset also could see Intel drop plans for a single-data-rate version of the device, according to sources at last week's DDR Summit II here"

Well DUH!...
So someone figured out that a P4-SDRAM combo would suck...
Scumbria even said P4 is much better off with DDR...
OTOH, isn't Rambus more likely to collect royalties on DDR than single rate SDRAM? So why bother? Maybe Intel should just stick with RDRAM...
